Firefox

First off, I have to say this forum is great!
I installed Firefox yesterday and love it!
There are so many extensions that can be installed to add to this already great browser.
So I was hoping someone could tell me what they feel are must have extentions?
By "must have" I mean, security wise etc.
If you also know of extensions that would add to browsing experiance, please feel free to voice them...just let us know
look forward to reading the posts.
Thanks
Peter

As for "must have" extensions, the ones I can't live without are Tab Browser Extensions, Googlebar and Paste and go. I also have several others I always install, but I can't stand to use FF without those three.

EDIT:
Also User Agent Switcher for the few sites stupid enough to try to block access based on browser.

All in one gestures - Mouse gestures, intergretes with TBE , so you can set mouse gestures for unclose tab.

Prefbutton/toolbar enhancments - Add options to turn on off java,js,referrer,proxies etc with a single click

Pastequote- For posting on forums such as this! Adds

to pasted stuff from the clipboard

Context search - adds your mycroft search plugins so you can highlight right click and search with any one of them

Smartsearch - Same as context search except it uses the bookmark searches

Conquery - like the above 2, but more powerful , it can automatically use parimeters like the url, the domain name of the site you are on etc as parimeters to send to the search form. Eg you can check a webpage for html validity, look up it's domain records etc.

Searchbutton - controls whether searches using the search toolbar open in a new tab or on the same tab.

And many many more.....

2) Drag a word or a phrase and throw it anywhere on your webpage (content area) to search it through whatever search engine installed/selected in your search bar. If "find in this page" is selected, it uses the default google search engine. (note: this "search-through-searchbar" feature is supported from 0.1.5 on).

3)(0.1.6 )Adding options to configure new tabs for "link/text-link/uri" and "search" loaded in foreground or background. Default setting: "link/text-link/uri" in background, "search" in foreground

4) (0.2)Version 0.2 which fixed a main bug (interfering moving text in text-frame/box to copy/paste) and several other minor enhancements.

5)(!new 0.2.1 )Drag an image to download [Credit goes to NetOne] Adding a new function which allows users dragging an image and drop it to start downloading it with the download manager of firefox. You can globally disable this feature from its option and keep dragging an image to open it in a new tab . Or you can temporarily disable downloading dragged images by holding Ctrl key when dropping it.(!new 0.2.2 )Download images to a default folder directly: An option is added. Users can configure to drag an image and . either download it using the system's download manager . or download it to a default folder directly, where the default folder is configurable.[Thanks NetOne: I use his saveImage() function to save images when bypassing the system's download manager.]
